The absolute worst experience I have ever had with a company. I spoke with 10 different people and nobody was able to help me until the 11th person I talked to was able to figure out what was going on. My service was supposed to be set up on July 11th and I was even given a confirmation number and modem. Come to find out my service was not connected the day they said I was to receive service, and whenever I called for help, no one was able to pull up my account. I asked if I needed to be home for service to be set up, and I was told, "No, service will automatically be set up," it wasn't. The first time I called to figure out what the issue was, I called and was on the line for 20 minutes, and was hung up on. When I finally got a hold of someone that was willing and able to help me ( the 11th person), they let me know that they weren't able to send a tech out to install the service for another month.

While waiting for my two year contract to be finished, I moved to an area with free Internet. Yeah Google! I had to change my address for billing purposes which I later found out restarted my two year contract. When I called they said they put a note on my account and then I could call on my original two years was up and they would be no cancellation charge. I think they told me this is just so I'd stop bothering them. I called when my original contract was up and canceled. I confirmed there would be no charge. I week later I got an email for $170 cancellation. I called again and surprise there are no notes and nothing they could do. When I changed my address my two year contract started over . I didn't sign anything agreeing to this I'm not sure how they get away with this. I was a customer for over eight years. When I moved again I would've signed up with them but not now.

I have been a MagicJack user for my home phone for many years. I changed from the big phone company ($70+/month) to MagicJack for Business a few months ago. The porting process took a bit longer than expected, however the service is excellent. I have had ZERO issues, the call quality is great as I cannot tell any difference. They even sent me a nice desk phone to use which adds so much more than my previous land line phone. I purchased from another source a headset to use with the phone, works great. I like the music on hold with a message telling my client I'll be with them shortly, makes my small business seem much larger to clients when I have to place them on hold. I have yet to try the app so I cannot comment on that as of this time. If you have high speed internet then this should work great for you. Highly recommend.

I have so many issues with the incompetent customer services team for
business. We are a small business and experiences a drop line, poor quality
of voice and lack of customer services.
The majority of their customer service people don't have adequate training
and don't know how to address and resolve the issues properly. We had called
numerous times to address above matters but it didn't get fixed on timely
matter and the manager of customer service, Veil, disconnected our service
without any proper notifications at all and I asked her if do you have any
protocol and procedures in black and white that you could cancellation right
away without any proper notification about it. She could not find one.
My suggestion to all of small business owners, don't even bother to have this
as your telephone service. I know they are cheap but if you compare with the
quality of customer service and products that the company offers you will
give headaches and problems in future. I do believe you don't need to spend
/waste your time with the unreliable service.
Plus on top of it, they dont refund my account. TERRIBLE SERVICE AND HORRIFIC
CUSTOMER SERVICE!
